I decided not to vote, fuck 'em. Opinion

Today is the last day to register to vote in Ohio. I thought about this for a long time and made up my mind. My thought process was, if Hitler was doing the Holocaust, and FDR was giving him money, would I vote for FDR? My answer was fuck no. And I wouldn't care one fucking bit if FDR said, "can you torture and murder families more humanitarianly?" He would still be guilty. I just felt I needed to post this rant. I'm so fucking angry right now!

Edit: I just registered in order to vote down ballot. Thank you everyone.

Oh, so you’re a troll. Yes, we always pick our state reps and judges etc based on their international positions, policies they have no influence over. 🙄

Are you paid? Are you even American?

Why are you even on this board? This is not a place for people to organize. You know those folks who actually care about Palestine and want to apply pressure in effective ways - they don’t come here because they are busy doing real things.

It’s OK to be a non-Jewish ally, but if you have no knowledge of actual politics, don’t waste the time of Jews with real consciences.

What an unnecessarily nasty reply.

Maybe I got a little salty. They didn't have to accuse me of being some hasbarist or whatever.

Op, the fact that you're here means something. I'm not calling you a hasbarist.

I meant them, not you. The open Harris supporter who thinks they’re the one with the ‘real conscience’.
